ACP (Aluminium Composite Panel) sheet is made with aluminum composite material, which consists of two thin coated aluminium sheets. ACP sheets are very durable and are commonly used as a building material in various architectural and construction applications due to their unique properties and versatility.
ACP stands for Aluminium Composite Panel.
Some of the key components of ACP sheets are protection film, PVDF/polyester resin-based coating, primer coating, aluminium coil, adhesive film, and polyethylene core.
Aluminium Composite Panels are flat panels consisting of two thin coil-coated aluminium sheets reinforced together to a core that’s non-aluminium. The design of aluminium composite panel properties provides benefits of resistance to heat, weather, pollution and acts as an insulator.
When it comes to building exteriors acp panels are a choice, due to their durable nature.
For design purposes acp panels provide surfaces that can be used on walls, partitions, ceilings and even furniture.
In signage applications acp panels are substrates that can be printed with graphics, logos and text to enhance branding.
In transportation settings such as train interiors, bus bodies and marine vessels acp panels are valued for their properties and resilience.
Various industries benefit from the strength to weight ratio and corrosion resistance offered by acp panels in their applications.
Yes, ACP sheets can be curved for architectural design purposes. They can be bent to the desired shape without applying heat.
The design of the aluminium composite panel is such that it is flame retardant. This means that aluminium trihydroxide that works as fire retardant will be exposed to heat, absorb it, decompose and release water vapour which will cool and dilute the smoke. This lessens the impact of fire which otherwise is more dangerous (and can lead to damage in the surrounding area too).
Aluminium panel cladding is the process of combining different materials. Claddings are basically flat panels of two thin coil-coated aluminium sheets that bind to a non-aluminium core from both the sides.
To use spaces for optimal level, elevation is done. For this the ACP sheet front elevation design is done by architects to give the best space frontage and also beauty to the interiors.
Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP) sheets come in a variety of standard sizes. The standard ACP sheets sizes are 1200mm x 2400mm, 1200mm x 3000mm, and 1220mm x 3600mm. Recently we luanched 1500mm x 2400mm, 1500mm x 3000mm, 1500mm x 3600mm.
Yes, there can be size variations based on the thickness and type of ACP sheet. Based on your project’s specific requirements, the our dealers will suggest the right ACP type, size, and thickness.
Yes, the size can be customized in order to fit architectural designs or specific applications. For example, for buildings with curved exteriors, standard rectangular ACP sheets may not be suitable. That’s why, ACP sheet sizes are customized based on specific requirements of the project.
There are a range of factors you should be considering for selecting the appropriate size of ACP sheets for your project. These include: architectural design, installation efficiency, budget constraints, structural requirements, and specific requirements of the project.
You can figure out the right ACP sheet size mainly based on your project type. For example, whether you want to buy an ACP sheet for the building’s facade, interior walls, or any other application. Since each project is different, appropriate size and thickness depends on project specific needs.
For ACP (Aluminum Composite Panel) sheets, the maximum thickness available at MAPL is 6mm.
Yes, there are specific applications and projects that may benefit from the use of thicker ACP (Aluminum Composite Panel) sheets. For example, 5mm and 6mm are used primarily for high-end architectural projects.
One of the important factors to consider when selecting the right ACP sheet thickness is the type of application. Let’s say, if you want to use it for signs and indoor applications, 2mm is the right choice; if you want to use it for cladding or interior decoration, 3mm is the right choice; if you want to use it for building facades on high rise building or large signs, 4mm is the right choice; and if you want to use it for high-end projects, 5mm to 6mm is the right choice.
The thickness of ACP sheets used for roofing applications typically ranges between 4mm to 6mm. Thicker ACP sheets (6mm) might be preferred for roofing in areas with high wind loads or for larger roof spans that require additional strength and stability.
At MAPL, we have a wide range of color options available for ACP sheets. We have color variations in our ACP sheet series, which includes Solid Colors Series, Metallic Series, Corporate Series, Sparking Series, and more. You would find different color options depending on your project needs.
The answer is yes. The reason there are differences in color options for interior and exterior applications is due to the fact that both types of applications are totally different. For the interior, you should be paying more attention to aesthetics, lighting conditions, and finish options, while for exterior, you should pay attention to factors like weather resistance, heat absorption, color fastness, etc.
MAPL ACP sheets available in different finishes, including wooden, stone, metal, marble, and metallic. It comes down to your project requirement. Our team can assist you on which ACP sheet finish would go well with your space.
Yes, maintenance requirements do vary depending on the specific ACP sheet finish. For example, ACP sheets with PVDF and FEVE coatings are known for their excellent weather resistance and color retention, leading to minimal maintenance. Nano self-cleaning coatings, on the other hand, are designed to repel dirt and particles, making them easier to clean.
ACP sheet is a modern-age construction material that belongs to the waterproof category. Rainy seasons or water leakages won’t damage the material.
That depends on whether it’s a normal ACP sheet or fire-rated ACP sheet. The difference between the two is that both have different core materials. Our fire retardant ACP sheets have the ability to tolerate high temperatures, which ensures safety.
ACP sheet is highly durable material and performs really well in all weather and climate conditions. It can withstand rains, UV rays, and changing climate. The key thing here is, ACP sheet quality. If it’s high-quality material, then moisture, sunlight, and changing weather won’t be an issue.
The actual cost of ACP per square feet depends on the sheet’s thickness, size, quality, and finish. On average, it ranges from ₹65 to ₹200 per square foot.
The average price of a 6mm ACP sheet is around ₹170 per square feet.
Yes, ACP sheets can be easily installed due to their lightweight nature and quick installation process. ACP sheets require minimal maintenance and can be easily cleaned with mild soap and water. ACP sheets are durable and can be repaired or replaced easily if needed.
ACP sheets are quite easy to maintain. However, to avoid dirt build up, it’s essential to pay attention to regular cleaning. Regular DIY or professional cleaning will remove the dirt as well as keep your space clean & beautiful.
The most common applications of ACP sheets are building facades, interior decoration, signage, and false ceilings.
Yes, ACP sheets can be used for interior as well as exterior applications. They are versatile building materials that offer a wide range of benefits, making them suitable for various architectural and construction projects.
Yes, you can use ACP sheets for residential as well as commercial projects. Some examples are building signs, storefronts, bars, hotels, shopping centers, kitchen cabinets, false ceilings, and so on.
ACP sheets have high insulation in harsh weather, and are soundproof and fire resistant. These features make them ideal for various construction projects.
Yes, ACP panels can be used for kitchen, bathroom as well as home decoration ceilings.
Yes, ACP sheets are highly recyclable. As a result, they don’t have much harmful impact on rising global warming.
Yes, you can repaint the ACP sheet. Repainting ACP sheets after a few years of installation can help to enhance the building’s appearance.
Yes. MAPL ACP sheets are certified by ARAI (The Automotive Research Association of India), BMSCERT, and NSIC (The National Small Industries Corporation Limited).
